Graded VG/EX 4 by SGC. Beautiful mid-grade example of what is recognized as one of Cobb's most iconic cards. The red-background pose has long been considered one of the great classics of the T206 set and of all vintage cards. The offered example displays a brilliant red background, outstanding image quality, honest corner wear, and excellent centering. Boldly printed Sweet Caporal 350-460/42 advertising reverse. The T206 Cobb red-background portrait is one of the key cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era, and this example would be a worthy addition to a world-class T206, Hall of Famer, or Ty Cobb card collection.
